Hatchet by Han Jae Ho, the light of the world


This book tells about the boy with a hatchet.

Brian's parents had divorced and he is not happy with that. One day, he had to ride on a plane to go somewhere alone. He went to the plane with a hatchet that his mother gave him. During the flight, the plane suddenly falls down by the accident, and the pilot and him lands on the middle of the jungle, but the pilot died when they landed. He had nothing but the hatchet that he got from his mother, and decided to live that hatchet. He made fires and caught animals and built house with that hatchet and live in the middle of the jungle with that hatchet.
I liked this book because this book tells about the confusion of the teenager in the place where he has nothing and knows nothing, and many other things like his parents' divorce or the trouble happen in the jungle.
